ROBYN HITCHCOCK - LIVE IN 80


UNDERWATER MOONLIGHT is a near sided classic.

That is -- when it was first released it slipped under the radar. Americans were taken up with MTV, Tony Basil, The Clash.... and classic rock. The classic rock part has never changed - that remained consistent. So when Robyn Hitchcock and the Soft Boys were making a racket nobody was paying attention in America.

Captain Sensible supported Hitchcock during bad times so he could keep on creating music. This clip was taken from Underwater Moonlight. The Soft Boys reunited in NYC at the Roseland for a concert a few years back celbrating the 20th anniversary. This live track captures the enthusiasm found on the Soft Boys Anthology.
